Obama Forgoes Public Funds in First for Major Candidate
Kudos to Obama, while he seems a fan of nationalizing all sort of things, when it comes to his own campaign he decided to privatize it. A very honorable and very conservative thing to do.

What’ really frightening is that this appears to be a common theme amoung Democrats these days. Case and point – a post from HuffPo yesterday –
President Bush in a press conference today strongly supported drilling, arguing that it would greatly enhance supply and take pressure off of oil prices.
Well and good. But if this is the moment to consider opening large swaths of offshore federal lands to drilling it should also be the moment to consider the creation of an American National Oil Trust, much in keeping with the highly successful and citizen-owned Norwegian Oil Trust.
Is this for real? Do a majority of Democrats really feel this is the right solution?
